❝So Jisoo, anong meron at nandito tayo ngayon?❞ Minji asked as soon as they arrived at the location. Nagtataka siya kung bakit sa dinami-dami pa ng lugar, sa tindahan pa ng sasakyan siya dinala ni Jisoo.

Tanginerns, ibibili niya ba ako ng bagong sasakyan?

❝I'm going to buy one,❞ He smiled, making her heart go wild, ❝—so that I could fetch you everyday.❞ At doon na tuluyang nagwala ng todo ang puso niya. Syempre, kay Jisoo lang naman nagdodoki-doki ng todo yung kokoro niya. Loyal daw e, harot man.

She tried to keep herself cool, ❝Hmm, ang bait mo yata sa akin ngayon, Shua.❞

The latter chuckled while placing the back of his palms on his mouth, ❝Wala lang. I think I need to bring our friendship back on tracks, Ji.❞ Natigil naman ang kilig niya dahil doon.

Kaibigan lang naman talaga ako e, ano pa nga bang bago?

❝Where do you want to go next, Ji?❞ Jisoo asked her without looking. Nagmamaneho kasi ito ng sasakyang binili niya kanina doon sa pinuntahan nila. Dinala na ng manager nila ang sasakyan nito pabalik sa agency.

Kanina pa wala sa mood si Minji pero nga dahil marupok siya pagdating kay Jisoo, ngumiti siya bago sumagot. ❝Tara arcade?❞ Pag-aaya niya.

Jisoo looked at her weirdly. ❝Arcade? Marunong ka ba dun?❞

❝Gago, you taught me how. Kasama pa nga natin si Hannie non e.❞ He remembered. He remembered that day, they're enjoying every minute, every second, when they were actually inseparable, three years ago.

Hindi naman kasi talaga close si Jisoo at Minji noon sa America, even they were neighbors, their parents are college bestfriends, and even when they were seatmates at the middle school they attended. Tahimik kasi si Jisoo at hindi din naman kaya ni Minji noon na mag-initiate ng conversation.

Pero nagbago lahat 'yon dahil kay Jeonghan.

❝Oo nga pala,❞ Jisoo answered, and fixed his sight on the road. Sakto namang nasa tapat na sila ng arcade at naghahanap na ngayon si Jisoo ng mapaparadahan ng sasakyan.

❝Teka lang, Ji.❞ She was about to open the car's door when he called her. Her brows arched, ❝Bakit Shua?❞

❝Sorry.❞

Alam na niya kung bakit. At masakit 'yon sa kaniya.

Kahit ilang sorry pa, Shua. Masakit talaga e.
